Default NFS Undercover

Got it today for my PC and my sons X-Box 360. Having fun so far. Kinda like Carbon and Most Wanted. Big world to cover, and lots cops chasing you. Stole 2 cars so far and won a pink slip. . My son will be finished this one by monday. I will be at it for a while I think. Nice action and pretty easy to drive, even with my wheel..

so far so good. Nice action and lots of racing and cops too. Just make sure you have a high end video card though. I gotta nvidia 7300 and I had to turn off a lot off graphics stuff in the options. I might get a new nvidia 9300 soon though. Game is kinda like most wanted and carbon combined.

Whats the difference between Carbon and Undercover? You can steal cars now?

You have certain jobs you have to do to level up. Driving different "stolen cars" to the gang boss without tearing it up too bad, and evading the cops first. LOL. I'm actually enjoying this game as it does get tougher to do like most wanted. But it has a story line that is kinda like carbon. Lots of races to compete in too. I'm happy with it so far. Worth the price imho.. I'm level 9 wheelman right now..

uh, i just played this game today and it may just be the worst NFS game out of them all. its 10 gallons of suck in a 1 gallon bucket. bad framerates on console games is pretty unacceptable and this game SUCKS when youre driving anywhere but 1st place.

too much loading as well between events. they really tried to over-do it with this game and goofed it up.

Just finished with a serious of "jobs" I had to complete. Steal 4 cars and not total them in the process. LOL, gadaam. Took me a few hours of driving and cussing. I had just bought a GT500 shelby before this for 165K after mods. Then I get to choose out of 4 cars a GT500 shelby. Geez resale value only 50K. I chose a porsche GT2 instead.

As for framerate, mines bad at 1st, but if I reload it once, it runs pretty smooth. Can't figure that out.. Great game, IMHO..

I'm not a NFS fan, personally. Grid will forever live on as the greatest racing game ever.

LOL grid. that game is decent but not the best driving game out there. the forza series blows it out of the water as far as realism goes.

Forza was boring though. If youre used to NFS games (which i was) then Forza is a whole other league/game style. The only thing that attracted me about the game were the graphics.

I agree that Forza blows anything else out of the water. NFS is fun, don't get me wrong, but for a serious racer it blows. Gran Turismo is overrated, and Grid is stupid as far as mechanics in the cars go. Forza is the only game that I can sit and play for hours and hours on end breaking a sweat and almost throwing my xbox out the window, but still being fun as hell IMO.

EDIT: Forza is also the only game where you can buy a VW Beetle and mod it up until it can beat a Ferrari lol.

Beat the game yesterday. Was kind of disapointed at the way it ended, but still a pretty fun game.

Here's the one I bought for way too much, cause I won a pink slip for one, but I gotta sweet Porsche instead.. LOL. I'm about to beat this game, but I want to get the Z-06 vette, and run some of the old races again. The one I stole was mad fast..

I just got done beating the game a while ago. gets kinda tough at the last few takedown races, but overall pretty fun.

3.8, you can pick the KR out of 4 other cars after your 1st pink slip win, or it might be the 2nd one. Anyway I would recommend the Z-06 after you unlock it, (that takes a while). Vette is very good for racing and speed. The KR is best for ramming cops and Takedown races.. Have fun. I'm gonna start over again and try not to get busted at all. LOL..
